Doja Cat Slams Fans For 'Low Effort' Tour Claims, Calls Them 'Little C*nt' And To 'Go F*ck Yourself'

Doja Cat exploded on social media this week, unleashing a blistering tirade against fans who criticised her opening night for the Ma Vie World Tour. Her response, laced with profanity, raw frustration, and sharp disdain, has reignited debate over her relationship with her own audience.

The Grammy-nominated artist, real name Amala Dlamini, appeared furious after fans accused her of putting in 'little effort' into her live show. According to screenshots from her X (formerly Twitter) account, Doja Cat pushed back hard, writing, 'I'm not your [expletive] costume monkey.

I move at my own pace and break my [expletive] back out there every night ... You are not the artist; you are the watcher'. In a separate post, she added a personal insult, 'You're such a little c*nt. Go fuck yourself'.

Tensions Rise After Tour Debut

The controversy erupted following Doja Cat's opening show of her Ma Vie World Tour in Auckland on 18/19 November 2025. As fans streamed clips and reactions online, a wave of criticism emerged over the staging, visuals, and her limited costume changes compared to her previous Scarlet tour.

One fan reportedly wrote, 'I hate that Doja is comfortable where she's at currently in her career; we're really not getting any more smash hits'.

Doja did not mince her words. She refused to apologise or make concessions, declaring, 'I won't and I don't need you'.

She further emphasised that her music is intended for those who want to hear her sing, and not for critics or casual viewers, 'Who f**king cares? I'm singing my MUSIC for the people who want to hear me SING. You're not even at the f**king show'.

A Pattern of Controversy

This is not the first time Doja Cat has clashed publicly with her fans. In 2023, she sparked controversy by criticising her fanbase's self-designated name, 'Kittenz', asking them to 'get off your phone and get a job ... help your parents with the house'. The backlash was swift and intense, with some fan accounts deactivating in response.

Her relationship with fans has frequently been volatile and marked by tension. During her Scarlet Tour, she issued a public apology after a show in Newark, New Jersey, admitting she felt her energy was off.

But for many observers, her latest outburst represents something more aggressive, a refusal to compromise or cater to fan expectations, paired with a stark reassertion of control.

The Artist vs the Watcher

At the core of Doja Cat's tirade is a fundamental distinction she draws between herself and her audience, she is the artist, they are merely watchers. She says she will not conform to a theatrical, highly stylised production that demands constant costume changes or heightened spectacle.

Her line, 'I move at my own pace and break my f**king back out there every night', underscores how seriously she takes her live performances, not as an endless cycle of pleasing critics, but as a creative commitment.

At the same time, her harsh language, calling detractors 'little c*nts' and demanding they 'go fuck yourself', has sparked wider conversations about her tone, online persona, and the boundaries between celebrity and fandom.

Already, some in her fan community are reacting with disappointment and confusion. Many supported her early work, embraced her boldness, and celebrated her unfiltered voice, but this latest episode has left others questioning whether that approach alienates the very fans who helped elevate her.
